Darkwater Proximity Chat
A BepInEx mod for Darkwater that replaces the default proximity voice chat with an improved
logarithmic volume falloff system. Voice volume fades naturally with distance and by default is louder, with
fully customizable values.
Installation
- Install BepInEx for Darkwater.
- Download this mod's DLL from the releases.
- Place the DLL in your BepInEx/plugins folder.
Configuration
After first launch, a config file will be generated in BepInEx/config. The following
options are available:
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MinDistance | 3 | Distance in units at which voice is at full volume. |
| MaxDistance | 20 | Distance in units at which voice becomes completely silent. |
| MouseMinDistance | 1 | Distance in units at which voice is at full volume in mouse mode. |
| MouseMaxDistance | 8 | Distance in units at which voice becomes completely silent in mouse mode. |
| VerticalScale | 3 | Scale factor to stretch vertical sound to be further. 1 = no distortion. |
| RolloffFactor | 5 | Steepness of the logarithmic curve. Lower = gradual fade, higher = steep drop. |
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
